You either have to use SIO2PC/APE/... or transfer the image to a real floppy disk.

so long,

Hi Hiassoft,

I decided to try several different used CF card i get in the past ---> Same situation !

So i download mydos on my atari by using a 8Mb maxflash cartridge but i can't write dos on D1 or D2, also by removing the cartridge and restarting myide (crt+shft+R) i'm not able to format D1 or D2 !

I'll buy one of CF card you advice me and if it doesn't work i'll really give up and mail steve about my problem, may be he knows more ?

During this time, if you have any other ideas there are welcoming.

Thanks again and see you

Best regards,

Hi All,

Just came back from my holidays and reading the posts here.
Seems that the internal MyIDE has a hardware problem.

Can you reflash the interface with the 4.4 beta MyIDE?
There are some bugs, but that won't bother your testing.
Run that version of FDISK (v2)
If you still have incorrect CHS, than most likely the interface has a problem.
(reseat the interface in the socket, check power on pin 20 of the IDE-connector <must be 5.0 volt>)
Or the CF-card is incompatible. But since you have the same problem with the 32MB it's not likely.
I have 32,64,128 and 1Gb cards and all work fine.
Only the older 32/64Mb need manual setup in fdisk (v1), fdisk (v2) works fine.

Attached you find a good image of mydos.

Later,
Sijmen.

I have uploaded a modified 4.3 MyIDE that has FDISK v2.
You can use that one to test your internal MyIDE further.
Grtz,
Sijmen.

Hi Sijmen,

you said "Can you reflash the interface with the 4.4 beta MyIDE?"

As i say my 1050 floppy has been damaged since few months ago and the only thing i have is an 8Mb maxflash cartdrige from steve ( i also used it to try to write mydos on partition 1 or 2 .. no way).

I'll buy a new CF card for making a last try !
Please tell me which CF model you are using and you're sure that's working

if in the future it still the same situation i purpose to send my complete myide setup to Steve or even to you if one of you are agreeed about this idea to see what the problem can come from ?

I keep confident in this system and anyway i want a myide interface on my atari XL !

Thanks everybody for supporting me,

Regards,

Did the wire change adviced by Steve not work?
If that is the case, please contact Steve about what to do.
Internally MyIDE will work fine with any media.

Any CF-card will do fine.
Did you test the mydos.atr I've uploaded?
Just fdisk the CF with 1 partition (D1:), nothing else.

Plug in the CF.
hold shift+control down.
Powerup and repeatedly tap D (to disable IDE).
Send me the values at D100-D107 (53504-53511)

Try to boot without disabling IDE.
Hopefully you get into basic, with or without IDE.
disable if needed, but be sure you get some IDE-activity before you do.
Now again send me the values at D100-D107 (53504-53511)

Later,
Sijmen.
